Atypical presentation of occupational mpox: a case report from Brazil.
Article in ASM case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: After decades of circulating predominantly in Africa, mpox caused a public health emergency of international concern between 2022 and 2023. Even outside of the epidemic period, the virus still circulates, with threats of reemergence, and different clinical presentations must be brought to attention for optimal surveillance. Case Summary: We report a case of monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection in a previously healthy physician with an atypical clinical presentation and a single identified exposure. Diagnosis was confirmed by PCR. Viral isolation was employed to reinforce diagnosis. Plaque reduction neutralization assays and semiquantitative ELISA were used to evaluate the antibody response. Conclusion: Our report has two main messages: atypical symptoms of mpox can hinder diagnosis, making adequate suspicion and testing fundamental; and the risk of occupational exposure must be considered when designing policies for healthcare workers.
